Can Keracare be good for my hair?




charismati


I'm black and I have long natural hair where I usually wash treatment/ condition if I need it and blow dry and flat iron my hair and my hair stylist use Salon exclusive. Now that I am away in college (FAMU/Florida A&M University) it's hard to find a good stylist that does the same things my hair stylist does so far I had a hair comp in two places and they use keracare and they can't use salon exclusive and they say keracare is a natural hair care line and I'll be fine I'm a bit skeptic cause I don't want my hair to be cut, shaved or have chemicals in it or wear fake hair I want it to be long, thick, natural, healthy like it already is I don't want it to be messed up.
I went to one salon near my school and they said they'll do it for $80 I went to rattlers edge the salon in my school they said they'll do it for $70 but IDK I'm thinking about catching a bus from Tallahassee to Orlando so my old hair stylist can keep doing my hair every two weeks.



Answer
"they say keracare is a natural hair care "

In the beauty industry, there is no industry-agreed meaning for terms like 'organic' or 'natural'. Unlike the food industry, these terms are not regulated for cosmetics which means companies can use these terms pretty freely.
Also, products like shampoo, conditioner and body wash are mostly made of water so therefore are mostly natural (because water is natural, right?). So if a shampoo is 90% water, then a company can simply claim "90% organic or natural" and be telling the truth. Certainly, this isn't in the spirit of what people believe organic to mean, but it is within the law.

Heat & chemicals are hair's worst enemies. If you want curly hair, (or straight hair to tame your curly hair) look @ videos or hairstyles of women in the late 40's or 50's, and see how healthy & silky their curly hair was. Have you seen Miracle on 34th Street or Downton Abbey? Their hair wasn't styled by professional hairstylists. They were styled by maids. No hair oil, no serum, no hair sprays, and no gels with just the use of shampoo & conditioner. Many countries didn't even have bottled shampoo & conditioner, example in my country, all we've ever used was a bar of soap for our bodies, hair & laundry. I did that for 13 years, even though my hair was permed, but there was no frizzy, no drying and my hair was the same as today: silky, shiny, soft, smooth it IS HOW they are styled when they're wet, and no hair dryer (for 13 years I lived in Asia). Many women then had long hair, curly hair and they wore hats, and pin-curled or plastic curlers curled HAIRSTYLES. The men too, have very shiny hair like the women, although the men used pomade . . .that was before Bumble & Bumble's production 70's, John Frieda's production 1988 or the invention of heating tools. "SleekHair.com was established in 1997 to offer the world of beauty products at the ease of your finger tips. Our company began with the opening of our first retail store in 1992." There were MILLIONS OF PEOPLE with beautiful hair before then, too!

Another way to find the secret to beautiful hair? Find someone with beautiful healthy curls or straight hair and ask him or her to share secrets, preferably someone who is 40-60 years older than YOU.

What ruined people's hair was the use of heat & chemicals SPECIALLY RELAXERS for Afri-Amer hair, which contain formaldehyde causing cancer.

Watch: Good Hair - Documentary by Chris Rock 2009. or Tyra Banks What is Good Hair. Black women spend 80% of all hair products. She's got good advice!

The biggest savings you will find in bath and beauty is on shampoo. According to Consumer Reports, spending money on expensive shampoos does not improve hair any better than cheap store-brand shampoos. The only noticeable difference is in how the more expensive shampoos smell richer than cheap brands.
A good way to save money is by buying the less expensive shampoos and spend money on a good conditioner. Conditioners vary more in ingredients and the difference of using salon conditioners versus the dollar store conditioners is noticeable on hair.

Itâs the dirty little secret shampoo companies donât want you to knowâwhen you wash your hair with one of those nutrient-rich shampoos, most of the nutrients and active ingredients in the product donât actually end up in your hair, they wind up down the drain⦠along with all the money you spent on the shampoo.
Why does this happen? Because the shampoo molecules they contain are too large to penetrate the cells of hair and more importantly the tiny hair follicles where our hair actually grows. They sit atop the follicle until we wash them away.
Why is that a problem?
Our hair works basically the same wayâif you want to treat your hair right, you need to treat the roots.

It is HOW you use to style your hair or what styling tools that damage the hair, and what chemicals you're adding to the hair, not the shampoo or conditioner.

What's an example of a clear clarifying shampoo?

Remember this: hair products are not made of glue to fix, prevent, reverse hair from getting damaged or hair loss. They are a trillion dollar business, and they also do NOT GIVE money back guarantee for damaged hair or hair loss caused by heat & chemicals = hair's worst enemies.
